Give this a slight rotation to the right, this photo is driving my OCD crazy. lol. It's got a slight left tilt, and it's not enough to make it a dramatic tilt, however not straight enough to be accurate. I think the subject is too centered. Maybe a diagonal angle could have added some interest for me. maybe make it coming out of the lower left corner? I love the background, nothing distracting there. Lighting onthe upper portion of the subject is a bit dark. Overall interesting to look at. ~Heather~

Really nice image - perhaps a little too dark for my taste

Lovely color and definition. Composition is okay, but you might also try positioning this in the 1/3 - 2/3rd range or even on the diagonal. This would give this lovely object added drama...

Perhaps the significance of the sword is lost on me. This is technialy a fine photo, nice background color, good focus, etc., but it just doesn't hold much interest to me.

A little dark, or a little too much shadow on the left...hmm..maybe that was intentional. I like it. 9
